Necroptosis is a regulated caspase-independent form of necrotic cell death that results in an inflammatory phenotype. This process contributes profoundly to the pathophysiology of numerous neurodegenerative, cardiovascular, infectious, malignant, and inflammatory diseases. Receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), RIPK3, and the mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) pseudokinase have been identified as the key components of necroptosis signaling and are the most promising targets for therapeutic intervention. Here, we review recent developments in the field of small-molecule inhibitors of necroptosis signaling, provide guidelines for their use as chemical probes to study necroptosis, and assess the therapeutic challenges and opportunities of such inhibitors in the treatment of a range of clinical indications.

LPS-induced TMBIM6 splicing drives endothelial necroptosis and aggravates ALI.

Background: The mechanism underlying necroptosis in pulmonary vessel endothelial cells (PVECs) resulting from long non-coding RNA (lncRNA)-induced alternative splicing (AS) of target genes in acute lung injury (ALI) remains unclear.
Methods: Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced expression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and lncRNAs was analyzed via RT-PCR in PVECs. Full-transcriptome sequencing was used to detect AS-related mRNAs.

Cytomegaloviruses, species-specific members of the betaherpesviruses, encode an impressive array of immune evasion strategies committed to the manipulation of the host immune system enabling these viruses to remain for life in a stand-off with host innate and adaptive immune mechanisms. Even though they are species-restricted, cytomegaloviruses are distributed across a wide range of different mammalian species in which they cause systemic infection involving many different cell types. Regulated, or programmed cell death has a recognized potential to eliminate infected cells prior to completion of viral replication and release of progeny.

Purpose: The incidence of vascular dementia (VaD), as one of the main types of dementia in old age, has been increasing year by year, and exploring its pathogenesis and seeking practical and effective treatment methods are undoubtedly the key to solving this problem. Phosphoglycerate translocase 5 (PGAM5), as a crossroads of multiple signaling pathways, can lead to mitochondrial fission, which in turn triggers the onset and development of necroptosis, and thus PGAM5 may be a novel target for the prevention and treatment of vascular dementia.
Methods: Animal model of vascular dementia was established by Two-vessel occlusion (2-VO) method, and cellular model of vascular dementia was established by oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) method.
TRADD-mediated pyroptosis contributes to diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Regulated cell death like pyroptosis is one vital cause of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), which eventually leads to heart failure. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated death domain protein (TRADD) is an adapter protein with multiple functions that participates in the pathophysiological progress of different cardiovascular disorders via regulating regulated cell death. Studies have shown that TRADD combines with receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) and facilitates its activation, thereby mediating TNF-induced necroptosis.

Background: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and radiotherapy using ionizing radiation (IR) are promising options for organ-preserving treatment of bladder cancer (BCa). A combination therapy (IR+PDT) could be beneficial for BCa treatment.
Purpose: For PDT, we used the near-infrared photosensitizer tetrahydroporphyrin-tetratosylate (THPTS) showing high therapeutic efficacy.
